ESPN dumps A-Rod to second-tier broadcast

Bobby Cox slamming beers from the comfort of his Barcalounger would be awesome, especially if he's wearing (wait for it) a wife-beater.*

*I've just added another century to my long sentence of rotting in heck, for making a domestic violence joke. I'm sorry.

Leo Mazzone would be the really interesting Manningcast candidate, especially since he'd surely be intoxicated long before the telecast began and has absolutely zero forks to give after realizing everyone hated him anyway.
 
Is Leo Mazzone an asshole? I'd never heard word of it, but wouldn't be surprised if he was.
 
By the end, Braves management thought he was buying into his own hype--believing he was more to credit for the historic success of the team's pitching staff than three Hall of Famers who won 648 games for the team--and into promoting himself. The rocking in the dugout thing became less a nervous tic and more a self-aware ploy to get on the cameras. Face-planting with the Orioles did plenty to support the notion a coach is only as good as his pupils. Smoltz loves him though, which counts plenty to me.
 
I always dreamed of putting together a "Producers" style team to annoy the holy heck out of America.

Hawk Harrelson and Rex Huddler as a team, ruining baseball broadcasts together, infuriating America weekly.
Hudler may actually be good on this type of broadcast. He used to be a great storyteller and guest on sports talk radio. Just don't let him try to explain what's happening on the field.
